1963 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Convertible.  The vehicle's restoration was completed in 2010 and has been driven less than 2,000 miles since its completion.191 total production for the Eldorado Biarritz Convertible and very few in this condition are in existence.  The Eldorado's condition is a solid number 2 but with a minimal investment could easily be a number 1 and worth over $120K. The exterior paint color is a Matador Red Metallic with red/white interior.  The paint is not perfect and does have some blemishes but can be easily corrected without painting the entire vehicle.  The top is white and operates fantastically.  The top's boot is virtually new since it has been rarely used.  The interior of the Eldorado was redone in Genuine leather and the pattern was reproduced from the original.  A Custom Audio head unit retains the appearance of the original radio but delivers state of the art sound and function.  The stereo systems includes a digital equalizer, 10 CD changer, 1" tweeters (2), 6.5" mids (2) and 12" subs (2); all powered by 2 separate amplifiers.  The system has been installed seamlessly and the big sound improves the driving experience.  The 390 V8 engine was rebuilt and is still in great condition.  The car will start right up and correctly adjust it's idle after warm up just like it did when it was brand new.  The transmission was upgraded to a turbo 400 which is far more reliable than the original Hydrajet.  The Eldorado's shifts are firm and precise and will get up and go despite its hefty weight.  The carburetor was upgraded to a more reliable and fuel efficient Edlebrock.  A car this size impressively still manages to deliver an average of 14 mpg City and 18 mpg Hwy.  The front brakes were upgraded to discs for superior braking capability.  All of the power options work including the powered vent windows which are impressive to see that existed in 1963.  The chrome and stainless steel was all re-chromed and re-polished although some of it shows some blemishes but truly impressive for a 50 year old vehicle.  The Eldorado's original appearance has been preserved  yet all of the mechanical upgrades ensure that this vehicle will be road worthy no matter the distance.  There is piece of mind knowing that the Eldorado is as reliable as it looks.  A true show winner and it will be the last classic car that you will ever want to own.  If you want to drive a classic car that is still as luxurious as when it was new than you want to own this 1963 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Convertible.  Limited space in my collection forces me to sell this handsome beauty and it will be truly missed.  All Buyers with zero ratings will be disregarded unless they contact me before bidding.

Cadillac HQ has a New York address

Sun, 16 Nov 2014

The new home of Cadillac will be in the 330 Hudson building in New York City's Hudson Square, putting the luxury marque smack dab in the middle of three of the city's hippest areas, SoHo, Greenwich Village and Tribeca.
The announcement is yet another milestone in the company's controversial decision to relocate administrative and marketing operations away from Detroit and into the Big Apple.
"The addition of a headquarters office in New York is a key step in Cadillac's ongoing global expansion," Cadillac boss Johan de Nysschen said, according to The Detroit Free Press. "There is no better atmosphere in which to better immerse ourselves into luxury consumer and brand expertise."

Cadillac boss: We will have diesels

Tue, Aug 18 2015

Johan de Nysschen doesn't usually mince words about his plans, and the Cadillac boss says that diesel-fueled models are on the horizon for the luxury brand in the US by the early 2020s. The four- and six-cylinder engines under development would launch first in Europe about 2019. "We will definitely bring them to the US," de Nysschen said during a press event, according to Automotive News. Unfortunately, the Cadillac president isn't saying which models would get the diesels, yet. This plan has been in the works for at least several months, and Cadillac made mention of the two oil-burners earlier this year during the unveiling of its new V6 engine. De Nysschen broached the possibility during an interview at the 2015 Detroit Auto Show, and he also referred to the inclusion of hybrids and plug-ins into the company's lineup at that time. Last year, a rumor suggested the addition of a V6 turbodiesel into the Escalade range. There were also rumblings of an oil-burning ATS during that model's launch. While Cadillac is no stranger to offering diesels in Europe, the decision to develop these new ones could come at an inopportune time. Governments there are rapidly moving against the fuel in favor of electrification. Tighter emissions regulations could also be on the way for the EU. Related Video:

Cadillac SRX production moving to TN, next-gen Equinox going to Mexico

Fri, 29 Aug 2014

It's a good week for the town of Spring Hill, TN, as General Motors has announced that its factory in the city of 31,000 will receive a $185 million contract to produce engines. On top of that, the next-generation Cadillac SRX crossover will be built at the factory (NA models are presently built in Ramos, Arizpe Mexico), which was once famous for being the home of GM's now-defunct Saturn brand.
The factory is one of GM's six facilities around the globe that will screw together the company's new line of three- and four-cylinder Ecotec engines. Spring Hill currently builds the 2.0-liter, turbocharged Ecotec, as well as the naturally aspirated 2.4 and 2.5-liter variants.
Spring Hill's vehicle assembly lines were idled in 2009, but were reactivated in 2011. The SRX is just one of the products meant to benefit from last year's $350-million investment, and should have a positive impact, creating or retaining around 1,800 positions at the factory.
